Autumn Colors

H ere in northern New Mexico we get four distinct seasons. And my favorite by far is Autumn. The weather gets perfect - cool nights to make you sleep good, brisk mornings, and warm afternoons. But the best part is the amazing colors that bust out everywhere.



Everywhere you look are brilliant colors.




Even down on the ground.





Everybody raves about the aspens, but the cottonwoods put on a pretty good show also:


The only down side to Autumn is knowing that winter is coming. Bummer.



Thanks for looking!

Fantastic pictures...I really like the southern CO/northern NM area. I've even applied for a federal job in Alamosa, CO

Who knows, I may end up there someday
